Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering with concentration in alternative energy technology

Alternative energy technology (AET) is the next revolution in the making. It is needed to maintain world´s prosperity and to meet the unlimited demands for energy in the near future. Therefore, graduating engineers, scientists, and specialists in AET is of a growing interest. This paper presents a thorough and complete curriculum for a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering with concentration in alternative energy technology. This curriculum was developed in response to the State of Michigan request for proposal (next energy) and was submitted in part by Lawrence Technological University to the State of Michigan. The proposed curriculum can also be used for a newly developed B.S. degree in Alternative Energy Technology. Since AET is multi-disciplinary in nature, the new degree encompasses courses in all engineering disciplines including electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, architecture and civil engineering.
